Forster’s Poor Wit.
Mr. Forster, if taken at his own valu-
ation, would be quite the biggest person
at any dinner table.
He used his wit like a flail, and then
looked round as much as to say, “See,
now, how the air is choked with the
chaff of other men’s talk.” I do not
think Crabb Robinson liked Forster,
though they often met—perhaps be-
cause they often met. They had both
slightly disparaging anecdotes to tell to
each other.
As a poor instance of Forster’s wit, I
remember on one occasion Crabb Robin-
son told the story of his butler whisper-
ing to him at the dinner table that the
soup had run short, whereupon Forster,
to the astonishment of his guests and to
the dismay of his serving man, roared
out the plagiarism, “Then let there be
more mullagataway soup,” at the same
time looking round as if he had said a
very good thing indeed.—Mrs. Crosse in

The Abuse of Hypnotism.
An army of miscreants misuse hyp-
notism to obtain money from their vic-
tims. They are constantly exposed by
third parties, but seldom lose their
power over their dupes, on account of
the mesmerized condition of the latter.
Lower still in the depths of sin are
those who call themselves “massage
magnetizers,” “massage hypnotists,” or
those who advertise “electric baths,”
“massage baths,” “magnetic baths” and
“magnetic treatment.” There is no rea-
son for their existence, unless it be in a
correctional or penal institution. Last-
ly there are the artists, professors or
fakirs, who give public exhibitions of
the hypnotic process. Some of these are
honest and upright, others are unscrupu-
lous and mercenary wretches.
All of them, however, are to be care-
fully avoided by sensible people. They
are to be avoided even more by young
boys and girls than by grown folks. If
any one desires to see the marvels of
hypnotism, let him or her go to their
own family physician, and either he or
some other member of that noble profes-
sion will satisfy curiosity without injury
to body, brains, minds or morals.
In taking interest in hypnotics in any
way, therefore, it is well to bear in mind

THE GUESS FOR GOVERNOR.
As election day draws near interest in
E. S. Levy & Co.’s guessing contest in-
creases. The three nearest guesses to
the number of votes the successful can-
didate for governor will receive will se-
cure the three handsome prizes offered.
The guesses received thus far are pretty
evenly divided between Clark and Hogg,
with the former slightly in the lead.
Some are of the opinion that competition
for these prizes is confined to the voting
pulbic—men entitled to vote in the
coming election. This is a mistake, as
Messrs. Levy & Co.’s advertisement
explicitly says that every person,whether
man, woman or child, is entitled to
guess, provided they make such on a
coupon cut from Evening Tribune.
Only a few days remain to make your
guesses. The following table gives the
opinions of supporters of the different
candidates as to the result of the elec-
tion :
A Hard Tramp Through the Sierras in
Search for the Deposit That Assayed
a Thousand Ounces to the Ton—Some-
thing About the Lost Cabin Mine.
Jacob Metz, a lastmaker of this city,
is an old time California miner and was
for eleven years a prospector in the
mountains, and he tells a curious story
about the alleged rediscovery of the
Lost Cabin mine in South Dakota. He
says:
There are two mountain myths that
have been bothering the heads of imagi-
native treasure seekers in the Rockies
since 1855. One is “White’s Cement
mine” and the other is the Lost Cabin.
In 1855 Kit Carson, James Kinney and
a half breed Blackfoot come into Fort
Randal, on the Missouri river, with a
bag full of nuggets and a story of gold
deposits of incredible richness on Cabin
creek, a branch of the North fork of
the Cheyenne river just west of what is
now the Montana boundary line. As
they were old mountain men, and Car-
son having a great reputation as a guide,
everybody went crazy. No white man
was supposed to have been within 500
miles of the place, and indeed men were
being cut off by Indians within five
miles of the fort.
Carson and Kinney went on a week’s
drunk, and soon gambled away their
gold, but showed no disposition to take
a party to the new Eldorado. The
United States officers at the fort dis-
credited the whole thing, and dissuaded
the crowd from following it up, but
men started out and none returned, and
hundreds tried it from time to time. The
Indians no doubt knew of the existence
of gold there, and of course wanted to
keep the whites out, and they did ef-
fectually for thirty years. A thousand
lives and a mountain of treasure were
spent in seeking the location in vain,
and it was believed by the old timers to
be a fraud from the first. Neither Car-
son nor Kinney ever made the attempt
to seek it again, but both repeated their
original story from time to time. So
this is about the truth as to the Lost
Cabin bonanza.
White’s Cement mine is much more
remarkable as a narrative. White was
a New Englander, sixty years old, who
had come to California in 1842. As a
gold seeker he was known and talked
about in every mining camp on the coast
and stories related of his phenomenal
luck. He no doubt made many fortunes,
’but was always poor, and tramped about
with a lean mule and half breed Indian
boy, getting supplies where he could.
I believe he was slightly demented, but
all looked up to him, and he undoubted-
ly knew more about the gold region than
any man living.
One day in 1858 White came to Horse
Head gulch from the Sierras, driving
his mule and looking utterly used up.
He got something to eat, and then took
out of his pack a number of pieces of
what looked like hard white clay glit-
tering with specks of metal, but he said
little and went off to an assayer, a Ger-
man named Helyat, and an honest man.
Before night it was known in camp that
White’s specimen showed 1,000 ounces
of gold to the ton. In five minutes every
one went crazy. Nobody slept that
night, but sat around the fires and
talked “cement.” In the morning a
party headed by Senator Sharon’s
brother called on White, who was sleep-
ing in one of the “shacks.” He was
told in a few words that he must pilot
the men to his find, he should have the
pick of the claims and help to work it,
but go he must, and on his refusal was
warned that his life would not be worth
shucks if he “stSbd off” the camp. Then
he consented.
Every one was wild. I was offered
$1,000 for my two mules and outfit, but
like a fool went with the rest. The trail
led right into the Sierras. The first day
was a race and one-third of the men
broke down. The Indian leaped ahead
like a wolf and then White followed,
his long gray hair flying in the wind.
By the end of the second day we were
in the heart of the mountain, in a des-
ert where no human being had ever
been before. Half of the animals were
lost, and the men were haggard with
fatigue and excitement. White was told
that if he played false he was a dead
man, but he still pointed east. We
passed good indications that showed
color, but in that land of desolation all
the gold in America would not have
availed a man then.
On the evening of the third day White
said we were near to our journey’s end,
and by tomorrow—and then he waved
his long arms and such a yell went up
from the frenzied men that partly made
the pine clad mountains shake. Every
one lay down expecting to arise a mil-
lionaire, but in the morning White was
gone and left no trace. About one-half
of the party, after incredible suffering,
got back to life and civilization, and
yet, despite our story, 100 men started
back over our trail two days after.
Three years after White reappeared in
Salt Lake City with his cement speci-
mens as before incredibly rich and again
disappeared, and from that day to this
has never been heard of, but men still
wear out their lives in seeking his lost
cement mine.

knowledge that will last for the rest of

Almost any one who speaks English
might be put down successively in half
a dozen places where English is sup-
posed to be the mother tongue and
hear as many dialects spoken, not one of
which he would understand until it was
interpreted. An old Lancashire worthy
and a London lady were one day occu-
pants of a railway carriage. The train
had been waiting long at a certain sta-
tion, and there was no appearance of it
starting, when the worthy remarked:
“They’re a gly, tanglesome lot here.”
“I beg your pardon,” said the lady.
“A’m sayin they’re a gey daidlin lot
here.”
“I really beg your pardon, sir.”
“I’m observin they are a vera dreich
lot here the nicht.”
“Really I must again beg your par-
don. I don’t comprehend you.”
“I was just tryin to say that the train
was late.”
“Indeed, sir, it is—very late,” agreed
the lady, and then collapsed.—London

A Recommendation from Illinois.
Wilmington, HL, April 11, 1891.—I
would say that I can recommend Cham-
berlain’s Remedies r° a number one set
of family medicines, such as every home
should be provided with. You can rely
upon their being as near what they are
recommended as any medicine sold in
this part of the country. Especially
would I recommend Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as hav-
ing no equal for cholera morbus, colic or
diarrhoea. Having used these medicines
myself and sold them for several years,
I know their value and have no hisi-
tancy in recommending them.—Levi B.

Suggestions to Piano Buyers.
It is a great mistake to suppose that
an old rattletrap is good enough for
practice when children are taking les-
sons—the very opposite is true. When
ear and the taste is young they should
be carefully guarded again? t the demor-
alizing influences of discord, the har-
rowing effects of harshness. Then is the
time of all others to “make” the ear, to
develop a probable inborn love for
music in one’s child. All this leads up
to the excellent advice we have to offer
—never buy a shoddy or a nameless
piano for your children, but select
standard instrument and always be sure
to buy from a tried and trusted house

dicated, and it was declared unconstitu-
tional. Hogg has not learned wisdom
from experience, but is busy denounc-
ing the court. He also still wants the
appointing power.
Judge Clark in his speeches says the
people have demanded a commission
law, and if he is elected governor he will
see that they get a constitutional com-
mission which will stand the scrutiny of
the courts,but he wants the commission-
ers elected by the people.
Who will you vote for? Hogg with
his unconstitutional commission . and
personal government, or Clark with a
constitutional commission and the gov-
ernment of the people?

Beauty Among Savages.
Among the Babines, who dwell to tl>e
north of the Columbia river, a large, un-
der lip is regarded as a type of beauty.
A small incision is made in the lip dur-
ing infancy and a fragrant of bone in-
serted. This is replaced from time to
time by larger and larger fragments,
each operation being attended with se-
vere pain, and at length pieces of wood
measuring not less than three inches in
length and an inch and a half in width,
are inserted, causing the lip to protrude
to a frightful extent. A similar custom
exists among the Paraguay Indians, and
the labnets worn by the Botocudos are
inserted in a slit made in the lower lip.
A Botocudo has been noticed to take
a knife and cut a piece of meat on it and
tumble the meat into his mouth. Among
the Hydahs (Queen Charlotte islands) it
is considered a mark of the lowest breed-
ing to be without this labial ornament of
the lower lip. When a young woman
and an old one quarrel the elderly dame
will reproach the younger with her
youth, inexperience and general igno-
rance, pointing, were further proof
necessary, to the inferior size of her lip.
This lip of beauty is not, however, pe-
culiar to these aborigines, but is com-
mon among some of the African tribes.
The Berrys, for instance, who inhabit
Sanbriat, a tributary of the Nile, insert
in the lower lip a piece of crystal an
inch in length. The Bongo women in a
similar way extend the lower lip hori-
zontally till it projects far beyond the
upper. The mutilation of both lips is
observed among the women of Kadje,
in Segseg, between Lake Tsad and the
Beuwe.—Brooklyn Eagle.
THE RAILROAD COMMISSION.
Governor Hogg, in his anxiety to get
a commission which would give him the
patronage of appointment, crossed every
“t” and dotted every “i” in the bill which
was finally passed by the legislature.
The best lawyers in the senate pro-
nounced the bill unconstitutional and
struck out the obnoxious clauses. The
house, Governor Hogg and the confer-
ence committee refused to adopt the
senate amendments, and the governor
threatened to veto the bill unless it
passed in the shape he wished it. The
very first time the law came before the - ---------
courts the wisdom of the senate was vin-1 York Herald.

Alas I too many have none at all. The
Morris process makes rubber plates
equal in every respect (except price) and
superior in many to gold. I own the
patented right to make them.
I do bridge work and crown roots of
teeth in the latest improved way. Teeth
extracted for 50 cents, as ever.

A Third Party Meeting Broken Up By
Hogg’s Friends Saturday Night—Al-
though Allowed a Division of Time
They Wanted All,
There was an announcement made
Several days ago that the third party
people would hold a meeting Saturday
evening, and Col. Harry Tracy was
chosen as the principal speaker.
About 8 o’clock a large crowd had
gathered at the corner of Tremont and
Market streets to listen to the speaking.
Everything went along smoothly for
some time. Mr. Meitzen made a ten
minutes talk, after which Mr. Pierce in-
troduced Col. Harry Tracy, who spoke
for almost two hours.
At the conclusion of Tracy’s address
Capt. McDonald replied to both speeches,
and it was when Mr. Tracy took the
stand to reply to McDonald that
the trouble commenced
which broke up the meeting.
As soon as Mr. Tracy arose some one
hallowed “Hurrah for Hogg,” and be-
fore he could say a word the cry had
been taken up by fifty people, and it was
impossible to make himself heard. He
stood for fifteen minutes expecting the
crowd would soon quiet down, but find-
ing that they did not intend to give him
a chance to talk, he plead for but ten
minutes in which to reply to two
charges made by McDonald, but the
crowd were determined and kept up the
shouting.
Mr. Maurice Groce then stepped to
the platform and endeavored to quie t the
crowd, but met with no better success
and Mr. George Pierce took the stand.
Despite the noise he shouted at the top
of his voice:
“this is a disgrace.
“I appeal to all honorable men to keep
quiet. If I was a Hogg man I would be
ashamed of this crowd.”
Just then Mr. Pierce observed Aider-
man Levine in the crowd and turning to
him said: “I am surprised, Aiderman
Levine, and I want this crowd to see
that an aiderman of the city of Galves-
ton is one of the leaders of this disturb-
ance.”
Shouts of “Hurrah for HoggI” drowned
his voice, and after two or three attempts
by Mr. Pierce and Mr. Tracy to make
themselves heard they left the stand in
disgust and the meeting that was called
in the interest of the people’s party was
turned over to the “Hoggies.”
THE SPEECHES.
Mr. E. O. Meitzen, third party candi-
date for congress, began by saying he
had as good a chance to be elected as
either of the other candidates. He was
well acquainted in the country and would
divide the vote with Rosenthal. His
party, he said, Mas onto the tricks of
rascality in government affairs. He was
for Nugent for governor from beginning
to end.
Mr. Tracy then occupied the stand,
and, in explanation for holding the
meeting in the street, said that his party
was too poor to hire a hall.
He spoke of the organization of the
third party, and said it was brought
about by men who think and have ideas
of their own and v, ho W’anted an honest
political party and an honest adminis-
tration of government affairs. When he
saw the democrats had departed from
primary principles he considered it hie
duty to quit.
“The great question today is "want of
sufficient circulating medium,” said Mr.
Tracy. “There is only
ONE POWER TO COIN MONEY,
and that is congress.”
He said all political parties must be
judged by their platforms. “The demo-
crats and republicans have set in defi-
ance the will of the people.”
Mr. Tracy then spoke of the tariff and
said it was strange the democrats should
favor a reduction to a revenue basis.
His party propose a graduated income
tax, and the money produced from this
source would be used in reducing the
tariff.
Mr. Tracy said he • was opposed to
Clark because he was running on the
national platform.
HOGG WAS INCOMPETENT,
and he was. opposed to him. “He
signed the text-book bill, which bad no
caption, and he framed the commission
bill which had been declared unconsti-
tutional.”
The people’s party favor government
ownership of railroads and contend that
any monopoly must be owned by the
people or it will govern them. Mr.
Tracy closed by saying that Clark would
receive 140,000 votes, Nugent 140,000
and Hogg 120,000. '
Captain McDonald said both men had
made good Clark speeches and charged
Mr. Tracy with secretly working in the
interest of Clark. He also alluded to
Tracy’s connection with the Farmers’
alliance “steering committee” in the
Twenty-second legislature, and said he
believed he was a steerer at the last leg
islature.
Mr. McDonald said (he railroads and
corporations opposed Hogg, but •would
not be supporting Clark if they could
buy Hogg.______________
Fred. McC. Nichols, is a candidate for
re-election to the office of state and
county tax assessor and is a pretty good
hand at electioneering, but he has never
had the impudence to go aboard vessels
where men were at work and seek to se-
cure their support by handing out flasks
of whisky. Can “the nameless one”
say as much.
